'Buy more cars' is the wrong answer

Politicians and business moguls [one and the same in my view] are telling us to go out and buy more cars, and they are advocating more debt for people to get into for that purpose, all so as to "get the economy moving." Well, it might move the economy, but it will prevent the motorists who go into debt to buy the cars from moving on roads that are already jammed to capacity. A better idea is to use the money for new mass transit systems that are flexible, but not for more trains or subways that can only operate on a fixed route. The technology exists for revolutionary mass transit systems that provide a variety of routes, and advocates for use of that technology arose way back in the 1960's. But politicians and business moguls, stuck in outmoded thinking and motivated by money ueber alles, cannot be moved - like the millions of more cars they want to put on the roads. If humanity survives, which I doubt, future human beings may wonder how human beings so advanced in technology could be so backward in their thinking.
